Pros

Insurance at the time I was there was paid by the company

Cons

Definitely had me fooled when hired. At the time they were in a better place granted..Things started hitting the fan and LPO got ugly. No room for growth. You can't just go from department to department because you have no experience yet if you don't wanna grow in your department it just depends who your sleeping with or who you rub elbows/flirt with to move up. If you don't wanna do that then good luck trying to move up. It doesn't matter if you bust your butt, put in the work, hours, OT if mandated because this company will screw you over. BAD. Laid off people who worked there for 8+ years, what kind of loyalty is that? Employee appreciation? PLEASE. Upper management is a JOKE and the way they talk to their supervisors is disgusting. If HR only knew half the stuff that went on, LPO would be demolished. Gary and Charlie, for staying a private company and priding yourselves on employee appreciation, your company looks like a bunch or liars and deceitful people who don't give a damn. A manager in flood excess was fired for having inappropriate relationships with one of their team members. Oh man, if you guys only KNEW about the stuff that goes down in LPO that has NOT been reported, caught or just swept under the rug by managers and HR themselves...and please tell me...who would wanna work there after knowing all this??? STAY AWAY!!!

Pros

Great benefits, can't argue with that.

Cons

They will lie to you that you can advance. Don't believe it. Also, they will fire "lay you off" you as soon as start to make a decent amount of money, and bring in people fresh out of college at 1/3rd the salary.

Pros

The owners take care of medical and dental costs, and provide other convenient benefits like a gym membership and virgin healthmiles programs.

Cons

The management hiring at this company has been very suspect for all 6+ years I worked here. Due to that, many major accounts have been lost, and as a result, massive layouts and firings are now taking place. I never had so much as a warning in my file, however I was targeted by using a very relaxed rule about in-work messaging and was fired immediately for "talking about non-related issues such as weekend plans and what music my significant other and I were listening to." I received several promotions during my time there and yet was fired for a very trivial reason because I honestly believe they did not want to give me severance by laying me off. Very shady company.
